Here's a little Aaron Gordon info.
About his workout with the Jazz: https://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/sports/...h-nba.html.csp
I like the kids personality and poise. Sounds like he's a gym rat and will get better. https://www.nba.com/jazz/aaron-gordon-pre-draft-workout-6.7.14
I really like the Handles he shows in this video:

If it's a four player draft and I'm drafting fifth, I don't draft the tenth best player (at least in terms of what I'm looking for).
When did Gordon become the obvious fifth-best prospect in this draft? How is an athletic tweener that isn't good at basketball a key piece?
He's not a ballhandler, he can't shoot, and he can't create his own shot, but he's the best basketball player in this draft? Man, maybe this is the most overrated draft ever.Gordon might be the best basketball player in the draft, he just happens to be one of the worst shooters.
He has a higher IQ and better passing ability than any other non-PG in the draft.
Best defender and is probably on par with Wiggins athletically pound for pound.
Question: Without saying "he might get better because I think he might", how is Aaron Gordon better than Jeremy Evans
Answer: He might get better because I think he might.
Right on.
When you can't realize that Gordon is obviously much better than Jeremy Evans, it's kind of hard to begin a conversation. It's not like we are the only people on the planet who like Gordon, people are saying he is locked in as the 6th pick for the Celtics.

People who do this ish fro a living are overwhelming convinced he's better than Jeremy Evans so I wouldn't even bother trying to convince people otherwise

UR right, now he is John Stockton/Scottie Pippens.
I never said I was answering the question, just giving you some updated information.

I'm aware that I'm being hyperbolic and obnoxious. But the idea of a possible glue guy that's a tweener being the grand prize after last season is nauseating.
